Why, me of course!

(Perhaps in the interest of avoiding characterization of yet another "best" or "worst" thread, this opne should have been entitled "Most mediocre singer...")

Best mediocre singer would have to be Anne Oxymoron.

Well, I am certainly my own favorite mediocrity, and always have been. No else forgives me quite as much, or as readily.

I've been practicing real hard to be able to become an amateur. You can politely bill me as "a noted singer" and maybe on a good night, I'll actually be able to hit two or three of them, but it's a range I'm trying to become at home on. If the deer and the antelope can learn to play, I can learn to sing!

Color me medium ochre, or maybe a little burnt.

And maybe the Media Ogres will pay attention some day, because I HAVE heard worse, and Great Medi-Oakers from Medi-Acorns Grow.

But I'm heading down to the local Mead Hall for some Meady Okra Gumbo, so I'll be back later....

Dare To Be Average!

"Best mediocre" ranks right up there with the concept by a guy I knew who was 6'8"...joined a circus as a midget.


....."World's tallest midget"

That's a profound thought, Amos. Thank you.

Ummmnm, there's somethin' about Garrison Keiler's voice??? No, it ain't like Kris Kristofferson who really cannot sing but just above that so...

...I'd have to vote for Garrison Keiler...

Bert Jansch, John Renbourn, and Jorma Kaukonen are all in the "shut up and play your guitar" school, although Jorma sells the song most of the time.

The trouble with mediocrity is, it keeps getting elected president.

Didn't "Mediocrity" used to be something commendable (i.e.. related to "moderation in all things")?

Severn, you will never be mediocre as a punster.
